Three-Dimensional Deformations of Pulmonary Collapse for Intraoperative Augmented Reality Guidance: A Proof-of-Concept Study

Algorithmically driven calculations of the intraoperative pulmonary collapse of human and porcine lungs were performed and applied onto an inspirated bronchus. This resulted in an artificial collapsed bronchus. This method could be a foundation for a dynamical deformable deflation model, suitable for intraoperative AR-based pulmonary navigation.

Abstract

Algorithmically driven calculations of the intraoperative pulmonary collapse of human and porcine lungs were performed and applied onto an inspirated bronchus. This resulted in an artificial collapsed bronchus. This method could be a foundation for a dynamical deformable deflation model, suitable for intraoperative AR-based pulmonary navigation.
